the foot of green life, bad AUS (DRAFT/UNFINISHED)

A mantle of suet, 

to wear charm school

 on threadbare 

 mask to gull have the 

face in laissez-faire

patsy, a soft touch 

as the garden of old school

  is biddable remember 

in sotto voce easily 

in an upstairs crony room

the public-space gurus

 are on new artificial hillocks 

    pilloried to roam freer 

favours hot arse 

down under turning 

to skilled predation 

with brittle alert 

     the admin cortex

   break given as 
bellwether smite

Ode to Barry MacSweeney (DRAFT/UNFINISHED)

Professional investment may be 

likened to those newspaper competitions 

in which the competitors have to pick out the 

six prettiest faces from a hundred photographs,

the prize being awarded 

to the competitor whose choice most nearly 

corresponds to the average preferences of the 

competitors as a whole so that each competitor 

has to pick, not those faces 

which he himself considers prettiest, 

but those which he thinks 

likeliest to catch the fancy of the other

competitors all of whom 

are looking at the problem from 

the same point of view

it is not a case of choosing 

those which, to the best of one's judgment,

are really the prettiest, nor even those 

which average opinion genuinely

thinks the prettiest we have reached

the third degree where 

we devote our intelligences

to anticipating what average

opinion expects the average 

opinion to be the ritual of the scapegoating

Prize Round (DRAFT/UNFINISHED)

Right and wrong

contestants switch with their

tasks answering over

      giant portable batteries

   that burn from the exit view

the arithmetic problem 

          of stardust fixed

         dead to workplace

they did however manage some

             late night shopping

      including Burger, Plant, Guitar

      Cake, Hammer, Microphone,

 Crayon, Carrot

Jukebox, Fish, Lollipop,

                 Devils trident, Golf club

Jury Super-Market Sweep (DRAFT/UNFINISHED)

‘You get to fantasise to 

yourself about putting 

razor blades in milkshakes’ 

as regression half 

mew in parlour for the 

disinclined history

of milk-based eugenics akimbo

it would not ultimately stray

letters from numbers

and numbers from letters
      but recur as horizons 

of possible identification 

reveling in a specific 

geographical location 

for a limited time 

to a threat of violence 

in courtyard the apex is

cenotaph fire extinguisher 

tribunal of cityscape in 

your house to bring

neighbourhood furniture 

by consent is the

British back-face mirror

coated as to watch 

from this imaginary 

equivalent structure 

that defines 

the cause of 

crime as criminal 

and that has no place for 

genealogy or a dull light 

shone on a surface of 

operation blunt

to its own dressing as this 

main target inhabits

and exemplifies commitment to 

elegised class baron pricket

gathering at the base 

of emergency situations

are soft skills in streets

deformed by the passage of traffic

which is actually a

salination of living beyond our

high-end empathy and there

will be a penalty for knocking

over the cameraman and

leaving store items wins
you 10 seconds

Heimlich Dead Cows, (SPrice) 2017

You have already applied for this Job, do you wish to apply again?

 Rolling around  

in POPS to slough 

 from distance or 

 the movement is not  

remunerated it is 

  morphed into the 

       final demand 

carved polyurethane foam 

resembles the 

 chemical reagents of home 

as expression of developing

   a mobile version of Snake

  you used to play at a burning 

 pyre where things

 are made again and 

again like reinforced end-notched

  glued laminated timber beams

 in scenic  paint it’s

 the way they see their life
